Hi guys,

I Sucessfuly overclocked my Q6600 to 2.7ghz last night and overnight ran a stress test with no errors. Spec as in my signature.

I want to get upto 3ghz and when i set it up to as I want it, I save the configuration and then the bios switches back to 2.4ghz. Is this because I havent upped the Vcore enough? Or is it down to something else?

Heres how I set it (might be slightly out as I'm trying to remember what I set)
FSB multipler = 9 x 330
Memory Multiplier = 2.4
Vcore = 1.375

Your help is much apreciated.

If its set to auto then you will be running at 1.32 i beleive which is the bottom end of what the processor will run on. The heat wont increase unless the vcore is upped. My 2.7 clock was unstable at stock vcore but worked great when i upped it a little.
 
Its i was recommended to change the voltage to manual, even if you only leave it at stock.

anyone got any idea on my problem?
